Hi. i m posting this comment with the acer aspire 4740g itself, the RM2499 model.

to b honest, the performance is so so only, especially with the given hardware specs
1) response time is slow, example there is minor freeze opening programs, u cant see instant click and appear situation
2) i5 means 4 cores? but burning the recovery disc make me almost impossible to surf nets with applets and java templates........, like youtube etc
3) too many junks program like the built in games and useless utilities actualy slow down the performance, while alot of the programs are trial only, it takes up unnesscary space too
4) hardware spec may seems tempting, like multitouch pointer, 720p webcam, dual layer dvd ram etc but it takes me almost 1hours ++ to fnish burning the 4 recovery discs.. the webcam resolution is just 640x320, while the pointer is not responsive like in macbook..
5) for gaming i think it is a big NO since it takes so long just to startup simpleprograms like browsers, even microsoft office

will write more when i get to use and explore more with it
